    Congenital pulmonary airway malformation in a fetus, ultrasound at 19 weeks -sagittal. Stomach top right of image, heart displaced to bottom left of image (anatomically on the right side of fetus.) Congenital pulmonary airway malformation in a fetus, ultrasound at 19 weeks - transverse.

  3. Pulmonary sequestration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_sequestration

    There is still much debate to whether pulmonary sequestration is a congenital problem or acquired through recurrent pulmonary infection. It is widely believed that extralobar pulmonary sequestrations are a result of prenatal pulmonary malformation while intralobar pulmonary sequestrations can develop due to recurrent pulmonary infections in adolescents and young adults.

  4. Bronchogenic cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronchogenic_cyst

    Bronchogenic cysts are usually found in the middle mediastinum. Chest x-rays show a smooth density just in front of the trachea or main stem bronchi at the carinal level. When the cyst communicates with the tracheobronchial tree, the air-fluid level may be seen within the cyst. CT scanning is useful in localizing these cysts.

  5. List of fetal abnormalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fetal_abnormalities

    Fetal abnormalities are conditions that affect a fetus or embryo, are able to be diagnosed prenatally, and may be fatal or cause disease after birth. They may include aneuploidies, structural abnormalities, or neoplasms. Acardiac twin; Achondrogenesis; Achondroplasia

    The anomaly scan, also sometimes called the anatomy scan, 20-week ultrasound, or level 2 ultrasound, evaluates anatomic structures of the fetus, placenta, and maternal pelvic organs. This scan is an important and common component of routine prenatal care . [ 1 ]

  7. Cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyst

    A cyst / s ɪ s t / is a closed sac, having a distinct envelope and division compared with the nearby tissue.Hence, it is a cluster of cells that have grouped together to form a sac (like the manner in which water molecules group together to form a bubble); however, the distinguishing aspect of a cyst is that the cells forming the "shell" of such a sac are distinctly abnormal (in both ...

  8. Pulmonary agenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_agenesis

    From the result of this experiment, a theory was raised that vitamin A deficiency during pregnancy may cause pulmonary agenesis. Some authors have suggested vascular cause of pulmonary agenesis similar to the causes for intestinal atresia [ 16 ] and others suggested Iatrogenic and viral factors as potential causes of pulmonary agenesis. [ 16 ]

  9. Biophysical profile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biophysical_profile

    A biophysical profile (BPP) is a prenatal ultrasound evaluation of fetal well-being involving a scoring system, [1] with the score being termed Manning's score. [2] It is often done when a non-stress test (NST) is non reactive, or for other obstetrical indications.
